Abstract
In this paper, link level adaptation algorithms in a
system applying spatial multiplexing in the presence of channel
uncertainty are considered. The first part of this paper deals
with the impact of accuracy of the channel knowledge on
the post-processing Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) of transmitted
multiple streams. This is evaluated by means of correlation
coefficient between post-processing SNR values corresponding to
the estimated and used channel matrix.
In the second part of this paper, two link adaptation algorithms
are introduced: the first algorithm adapts the modulation and
coding scheme to the post-processing SNR level, whereas the
second one searches for the optimum MIMO scheme (antenna
selection) and does afterwards the adaptation of modulation and
coding as well. Algorithms performance is evaluated assuming
perfect channel knowledge and in the presence of channel
uncertainty. The two algorithms show different gains when the
channel knowledge is accurate, but also different sensitivity to
channel knowledge imperfections.
